Lmao, You have to make sure that the background colour is transparent. You can choose this before you create a document.When saving the file make sure to save as PNG or GIF, not a JEPG as JPEG does not support transparent.If you open a picture and round the edges you will NOT have the option I stated above, But what you can do here is round the edges and select the stuff you want gone, then select the BACKGROUND ERASER TOOL. Simply erase every thing outside of the edges.Again, MAKE SURE TO SAVE AS A GIF OR PNG.NOTE: You will know it is transparent in Photoshop if the background colour is checkered gray and white squares.

First choose the the rounded corner corner shape from the toolbar, then you draw the shape over the picture, open the path palette and convert the path into a selection then mask it to the required picture
